hi johann

absolutely wonderful work as always......your method for making gratings is very similar to the method that Bernard frolic uses in his book.......I shall be trying this when I get to the gratings on the Washington model.

keep up the good work.

 

cheers....mick

Hi Mick,
thank you for your nice comment.

This method is exactly the same method from the book "The Art of ship modeling" of Bernard Frölich.

I have it from there.

Albert and Joe, thank you for your nice comments

and all the others for the Likes.

 

In small increments, it proceeds with the construction of the cutter.
Currently I'm building the bench seats in the aft cockpit.

The mouldings are a lovely detail to the benches.

I only wish to say you that your pictures are so fantastic that I've just downloaded the entire sequence you have posted, both for the Pinnace and the Cutters, as a tutorial: when the time will come for me, I will try your method and hope I manage obtaining a final result at least close to what you got!!!

My admiration and respect!!

'Little progress' yet not an easy part to fit the grating next to the transom. Excellent fit of such a difficult part. 

Love the holdings on the floorboards.
